To Prevent Scientific Fraud: Changes in Science Magazine

Special Online Collection: Hwang et al. Controversy – Committee Report, Response, and Background. ‘On December 1, 2006, Science will officially publish, on its Web site, the report of a committee commissioned by the journal to review its practices in the period leading up to the publication of the 2004 and 2005 stem cell papers by Hwang et al., which were subsequently retracted. On this page, we are making PDFs of the report, Science’s response, and an accompanying editorial available ahead of publication.
To provide additional context on the history of the controversy, we also provide on this page links to Science’s editorial retraction of the papers and other official statements on the situation, the original Science papers, associated news coverage on the controversy, letters and a Policy Forum on the controversy, and another Policy Forum on stem cell ethics published earlier in 2005.’ [via The Scientist: Panel recommends changes at Science]
